I was shocked when I heard the news.
He was BY FAR the best Defensive End to ever play the game. Thats just way too young though.
I always thought the big guy was in great shape, thats what makes it strange.

I haven't heard anything exact but he suffered from sleep aptnia which affects breathing especially when sleeping and can lead to a heart attack.

He had a sever hard attack and he died in his sleep. Its always sad to see a legend go , but even though i never met the guy i felt like i knew him as a friend cause whenever he was on the TV he had such a good personality. Sad day for Football Fans across the US

Yeh i told Celtics the news.
Undoubtedly, the best DE of all time, but also a great person. Me, being a Christian, can go by White's great example, he was a great person and a man of faith who is a David Robinson type figure, a great role model.
You dont see a lot of great sport role models anymore, Reggie was one of them.

he was great, but he wasn't clearly the best DE of all time. Decon Jones has to be up there, along with Bruce Smith.
